<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Minimal Link Condition''' states that [[derivation]]s with shorter [[link]]s are preferred over derivations with longer links. Also known as ''Shortest Link'' or ''Shortest Move''. In the [[Minimalist Program]], the MLC accounts for [[superiority condition]] effects, [[wh-island]]s, and [[super raising]]. In chapter 4 of the Minimalist Program, the MLC is incorporated into the definition of [[Attract]].<br />
